There are no real 'query' arguments. Only slice operators to return the slice of results you wan't.

Add a query_servers section to your local.ini and specify a python=/path/to/python-view-server 2. Edit your _design doc to include a "language": "python" member. 3. Write your map/reduce functions according to what the python view server expects.
